I'm at an event that's started with a minute's silence for the Dead Queen. Very strange to watch 80 people taking sixty seconds to be quiet. What are they all thinking?

I spent them thinking about that Prince Andrew interview.

Sparkly hat day

So, what with today being the day some 70 odd year old bloke gets given a shiny hat and parks his arse on a fancy chair, I thought I'd offer up this commentary.

Now, obviously there's going to be plenty of republicans and other antimonarchists ranting and raving about the outdated idea of monarchy and or the expense and wastefulness when people are starving and struggling to pay their bills etc. But, just remember, this event (and the royal funeral before it) is being organised and stage managed by a corrupt, unelected, elitist and increasingly unpopular govt. who have been pushing an ever increasingly fascistic and discriminatiory nationalist political agenda which is responsible for these problems and who are doing nothing to solve them (wherein they're prepared to admit said problems actually exist).

Now, I'm not a fan of the monarchy per se but it sort of works and our "democracy" as it stands is hardly a decent alternative so why should it be disposed of? I'm not going to say people aren't justified in their anger, just direct that anger and hate at the people who are actually responsible.

I mean who's more responsible for a kid suffering from malnutrition in a modern western industrialised nation? Some septegenarian who's never worked a day in his life? Or a group of politicians who campaigned, supported and then enacted the political policies that mean that child's family can't afford to buy food? Who deny that such poverty exists? And or there's something THEY COULD DO to remedy it?
